I was previously on the 100Mbps package before the recent free upgrade to the 500Mbps package.
Still using the original hardware that TIME provided:
1) Huawei HG8250H GPON terminal
2) D-Link AC1200 Dual Band Gigabit Cloud Router (300-867 Mbps) - the one that looks like a cylinder tower
This area is not really my forte, but I do know that with a 400% increase in speed, the current hardware setup may be obsolete and I'm not getting the most out of the 500 Mbps connection.
Is the current hardware sufficient?
If not, please give me some upgrade recommendations to fully utilize the 500 Mbps speed.... My home is a 1200sqft condo unit, mostly using 2 android tv boxes and a couple of mobile devices. May consider some smart home devices down the road.
Much appreciated!
Not sufficient. You have to get a better router. See here:

Ever since the speed upgrades, I have been noticing a lot of total connection loss to my condo.
Seems to happen more frequently at night, if I download a large file, then the connection will drop completely in my entire house, wired , wireless, different access points, totally gone.
Usually the connection will re-establish itself after 15-30 mins, occasionally if I reset the modem, it will reconnect quicker.
Anyone else experiencing this issue? I am in Bangsar.
Try with a different better router. Sounds like your router hardware can't handle the processing of the download. You are using the TP-Link C1200 or the DIR-850L?
